This story is part of our Start. Build. Grow. series, a celebration of Black business.
It’s Black Business Month, and we’re here to spotlight our favorite business social media accounts. Asad, known as @leo.blendz on Instagram, started his Instagram barber page in December 2020. He’s grown his account to 177k followers, and rightly so. Asad started his account simply by compiling photos of his clients and their hair transformations with a mixture of textures, styles, races of clients, and a variety of ages. He slowly grew to create videos of the transformations. In his recent videos, he asks his clients why they pay over $70 for their haircuts, and viewers quickly realize why, because these fresh cuts are jaw-dropping! Here are some of the videos that show off Asad’s talent. Enjoy!
